Possible alternative for viewing Tamriel through your interi

Post » Thu Sep 01, 2011 7:31 pm

Hi,

I'm making a player owned house mod, & it won't let me see though the interior windows properly,
I have the All Natural & immersive Interiors mods installed, and they work great with all existing buildings in game, but not mine.
Bash patch issue I think? .. but I can't be bothered with Wrye Bash, I've got the interior cell to display the rain and thunder and that will do if need be.

BUT

So here is the real question, is it possible to use a script some how to allow a player to activate the exterior door of the house, to enter the interior, and at that exact moment swap the exterior house .nif with the interior house .nif and all of the house contents (including another interior door to the basemant which is in another cell) so it's still in the Tamriel world space, then I could see Tamriel through the windows without any other mods.

If it is possible could someone in the know tell me how it's done and possibly write me the script?

Also I've never done any more than visual mods (No scripts, quests or NPCs) so detailed help would be greatly appreciated if you have the time.

Thank you in advance.

If you're using a vanilla mesh, then the windows will be transparent if AN is installed.
Immersive Interiors is made on an individual basis for every cell. Right now I haven't perfected the art of exterior cells, so only city houses can be made by me.

Exterior homes are tricky because rain falls through anything. You'd have to disable rain and make a custom mesh. And a script to toggle meshes won't be feasible at all, for many reasons.

The best you can do is really shove a few trees outside to make it look like the trees are out the windows.
